Nike Lacrosse's 'The Ride' Sights and Sounds: Monday

The Ride is all about bringing lacrosse to the Nike Headquarters campus and showing lacrosse players what Nike's all about. So, here are some of the scenes we took in that best illustrate what happens when lacrosse makes its way onto the Beaverton, Ore., campus.

Signs at the airport to pick up arriving campers. No matter how many times you see it, it's still big time. The only thing better is Lloyd Christmas holding the sign.

Swoosh on the bridge enbunkment while entering the back way.

Sunsetting on the back entrance to campus.

Nike's office buildings are situated around a picturesque lake lined by banners depicting their signature athletes in all their athletic glory.

The lineage of Michael Jordan and the influence his shoes had on the company is well-preserved.

Couldn't not snap this moment when, outside of the Ronaldo Field, a young Lionel Messi fan approached a footballer statue.

As a Cavs fan, my particular favorite banner was obviously of Kyrie Irving.

Helmets were distrbuted on the field — a chic Cascade R in matte gray with a white chin piece.

And a Fast or Last sticker on the panel.

Athletes also got Nike Vapor Elite II gloves. Check back tomorrow for a full gear spread.

Nike Sparq testing and training kicked off Monday morning and Quint participated in the dynamic warm-up.

Kyle Harrison and Max Seibald warmed up goalies with a few low-to-high heaters that put a few windows in jeopardy.

And to cap off the day, those in attendance got to see IL Publisher Bob Carpenter exhibit picture-perfect form.
